■
A longer supply hose (approx.
2.20 m) for standard model
en
If the water pressure is higher than this,
a pressure-reducing valve must be
installed.
Connection
1. Connect the water supply hose to
the water tap (¾" = 26.4 mm) and to
the appliance:
– Model: Standard
Water inlet
: Warning
Risk of death!
There is a risk of electric shock if you
touch live components.
Observe the following when connecting
the machine:
Notes
Only operate the washing machine
using cold mains water.
■
Do not connect the machine to the
mixer tap of an unpressurised hotwater boiler.
■
Do not use a used supply hose. Only
use the supply hose supplied with
the machine or one that was
purchased from an authorised
retailer.
■
Do not bend, squash, modify or cut
through the water supply hose
(otherwise its strength is no longer
guaranteed).
■
Only tighten the screw connections
by hand. If the screw connections
are tightened too much with a tool
(pliers), the thread may be
damaged.
– Model: Aqua­Secure
■
Tip: Connect also an external water
filter between water supply hose and
tap. The filter filters dirt particles out
of the water.
Water filter must be cleaned regularly
to remove contaminants. This will
prevent blockages. See also ~
separate installation and cleaning
instruction for water filter.
2. Open the water tap carefully,
checking the leak tightness of the
connection points. The screw
connection is under mains water
pressure.
Optimum water pressure in the supply
network
At least 100 kPa (1 bar)
Maximum 1000 kPa (10 bar)
When the tap is open, the water flow is
at least 8 l/min.

slip out.
Note: Do not kink the water drain hose
or put strain on it lengthways.
You can lay the water drain hose as
follows:

Outlet in a sink
: Warning
Risk of scalding!
When you are washing at high
temperatures, there is a risk of
scalding if you come into contact
with hot water e.g. if hot water is
being drained into a wash basin.
Do not reach into the hot water.
Caution!
Damage to the appliance/fabrics
If the end of the drain hose is
immersed in the drained water, water
may be sucked back into the
appliance and may damage the
appliance/fabrics.
Make sure that:
– The plug does not block drainage
from the sink.
– The end of the drain hose is not
immersed in the drained water.
– The water drains away quickly
enough.

Grounding Instructions
: Warning
Danger of death!
Improper connection of the ground may
result in electric shock. Have the
appliance checked by a qualified
technician or licensed electrician if you
are in doubt as to whether the washing
machine has been properly grounded.
This appliance must be grounded. In the
event of malfunction or breakdown,
grounding will reduce the risk of electric
shock by providing a path of least
resistance for the electric current. This
appliance is equipped with a cord that
has an equipment grounding conductor
and a grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into an appropriate outlet that
is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with local codes and
ordinances. To ground the appliance
use a 3 pin plug and properly grounded
socket of 16 A rating.
Notes
■
Do not modify the plug provided with
the appliance. If the plug will not fit
into outlet have a properly grounded
outlet installed by qualified
electrician. Do not cut, remove or
bypass the grounding prong on the
washing machine power cord plug.
■
The wiring for the eletrical outlet
circuit must be sufficient to meet the
appliance requirements. Use of
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter
(GFCI) is recommended.
■
Do not use the machine with an
extension box, extension cord, spike
busters etc., as this may lead to
improper grounding conditions.

Sort your laundry according to the care
instructions and manufacturer's
information on the care labels:
■
Type of fabric/fibre
■
Colour
Note: Laundry can discolour or not
be cleaned correctly. Wash white
and coloured laundry separately.
Wash new bright fabrics separately
the first time you wash them.
■
Soiling
Wash laundry with the same level of
soiling together.
You can find examples of levels of
soiling on ~ Page 20
– Light: Do not prewash, select the
speedPerfect G setting if
necessary
– Normal
– Heavy: Load less laundry, select
a programme with prewash
– Stains: Remove/pretreat stains
while they are fresh. First, dab the
stain with soapy water/do not
rub. Then wash the items of
laundry with the appropriate
programme. Stubborn/dried-in
stains can sometimes only be
removed with several washes.
■
Symbols on the care labels
The numbers in the symbols indicate
the maximum washing temperature
which may be used.
– M: Suitable for a normal
washing process; e.g. Cottons
programme
– U : A gentle washing process is
required; e.g. Easy-Care
programme
– V : An especially gentle washing
process is required; e.g.
Delicate/Silk programme
– W : Suitable for washing by
hand; e.g. Wool programme
– Ž : Do not wash the laundry in
the machine.
Note: Laundry must not be treated with
fabric softener.
Starching is possible in all wash
programmes if liquid starch is used.
Starching with liquid starch is possible
in programs such as Rinse and Cottons
Dyeing/bleaching
Dye should only be used in normal
household quantities. Salt may damage
stainless steel. Always follow the dye
manufacturer's instructions.
Do not use the washing machine to
bleach clothes.

Placing laundry into the drum
: Warning
Risk to life!
Items of laundry pretreated with
cleaning agents that contain solvents,
e.g. stain remover/cleaning solvent,
may cause an explosion after being
loaded into the washing machine.
Hand-rinse these items of laundry
thoroughly beforehand.
Notes
■
Mix items of washing of varying
sizes. Laundry items of different
sizes distribute themselves better
during the spin cycle. Individual
laundry items may cause an
unbalanced load.
■
Observe the maximum indicated
load. Overfilling adversely affects the
washing result and encourages
creasing.
1. Unfold presorted laundry items and
place them in the washing drum.
2. Ensure that no items of laundry are
trapped between the door and
